Increase storage.MemoryStore size

2014-06-12 Thread ericjohnston1989
Hey everyone,

I'm having some trouble increasing the default storage size for a broadcast
variable. It looks like it defaults to a little less than 512MB every time,
and I can't figure out which configuration to change to increase this.

INFO storage.MemoryStore: Block broadcast_0 stored as values to memory
(estimated size 426.5 MB, free 64.2 MB)

(I'm seeing this in the terminal on my driver computer)

I can change spark.executor.memory, and that seems to increase the amount
of RAM available on my nodes, but it doesn't seem to adjust this storage
size for my broadcast variables. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Eric

If you are launching your application with spark-submit you can manually edit 
the spark-class file to make it 1g as baseline. 
It’s pretty easy to do and to figure out how once you open the file.
This worked for me even if it’s not a final solution of course.
